The dedicated hardcore mmo experience has been tried (WildStar is the newest one that comes to mind) and it often fails. Also more than any game type made MMO’s have the highest costs of development and post development operation and yes while you would like an MMO only for the “super hard core MMO gamer” it is almost…

Better conversation skills than most people I’ve sat next to while staring at my phone...

Does this count as accidental anal?

Yep. UC2 used to be my all-time favorite game, until UC4 came out. Loved the story, the scenery, and the gameplay. Thought it was a great send-off.

You must have terrible road trip experiences, yes?

That “pretty lil thing holding her own in a room of men in suits” won’t be objectified until her boyfriend enters and the men in suits can say what they are actually thinking.

Getting a substantail part of the market by creating the same experience over and over is whats causing newer MMOs…
